The Story Behind Showglo

While working on various projects, I craved a way to design light shows in the same way I create music. Inspired by music producers layering sounds and triggering samples to build music, I wanted to layer lighting elements and trigger lighting cues in the same way. I tried many different solutions and found they were either too complicated or lacked the features I wanted. This led me to start working on an audio plugin that would enable me to control lights from my Digital Audio Workstation (DAW).

After developing the plugin prototype, I decided to adapt the software for live use, enabling MIDI hardware with faders, buttons and drum pads. I spent several years using the software and refining it along the way. Eventually, I had a lighting controller that integrated seamlessly with my music production workflow and made live operation feel like playing a musical instrument. I decided it was finally time to share it with the world and Showglo was born.
